10 Reasons I Didn’t Go to Wegman’s Today

I am hosting book group tomorrow* and in anticipation of the snow that was predicted to fall today I bought everything I needed in and around Bethesda yesterday.

Because I was “out of the office” all day and evening yesterday I missed several emails about work I had waiting for me and I needed to get it done.

I couldn’t sleep last night (reasons for this are starred)

I finally fell asleep at 6 am and slept until 9 am (we were due to leave at 10)

It snowed in Bethesda last night and words like treacherous roads made me not want to drive to Virginia

I need to write a speech for Burns’ Night this Saturday.*

I wanted to get a head start on cleaning the house for book group*

I thought it might be my last snow day with Andrew

It’s a busy week: 2 bookgroups, a coffee, Burns’ night, hair color/cut, wrestling meet (which I missed), a visit to the vet (I need to go back to pick up an antibiotic) and being an introvert I need alone time.

I received bad news from Mississippi — my aunt had a stroke and discovered she has diabetes and my cousin is being shipped off to Iraq next week.*
